"Chances are that by now, you're familiar with one of the 2020s' most popular design silhouettes: the curvy couch. I've been noticing lately that couches aren't the only ones getting the rounded treatment, however - pill-shaped decor is popping up everywhere these days. From benches and coffee tables to lighting and pillows, we're calling it: This shape is about to be all over your feed, if it isn't already."
"Curved silhouettes have been on the rise in the design world for much of the last five years, and I'm only loving them more. I think rounded furniture is a direct response to the harsh lines of minimalism and modernism: Softer edges create a soothing and cozy vibe. They feel safer somehow than sharper lines - think a warm hug vs. the threat of a stubbed toe. I'll take the hug, thanks!"
Curvy, pill-shaped silhouettes are expanding across furniture and decor beyond the curvy couch to benches, coffee tables, lighting, and pillows. The rounded form trends as a softer alternative to the rigid lines of modernism and minimalism, creating a soothing, cozy atmosphere. Softer edges convey safety and comfort, contrasted with sharper lines that suggest risk or discomfort. The pill shape represents a natural evolution of curvy furniture trends in recent years. Many designers and shoppers favor the comforting visual of rounded pieces, encouraging wider adoption across interior design and social media feeds.
